Selling a house

Selling a house is a real pain. I am not the greatest housekeeper. In fact, many of the decisions we have made in regards to the new house, are based upon ease of cleaning :-). Anyways, the current house went on the market at 12:01 this morning. We had two people look at it so far - one at 4 pm and one at 5 pm. Trevor (realtor extraordinaire) said both want to see the house again tomorrow, with family members. One couple would want immediate (after closing) occupancy. That isn't an option for us because WE DON'T WANT TO MOVE TWICE. But Trevor told them anything is possible if the price is right. I don't know if these people are going to be willing to pay what it would take to get A to move into interim housing. I don't know if anyone, short of Donald Trump could pay enough to get A to move into interim housing. Second couple are renting an apartment and the timing would be really good for them because they don't want to break their lease. Everyone, let's cross our fingers!

In order to show the house, it has to be:
1) clean - as mentioned above, not the easiest for me!
2) uncluttered
3) all dog beds, bowls, etc. have to be out of sight. I guess people don't like it shoved right in their face that Rover might have lived in the house they want to buy. This means I have to shove two huge greyhound beds under my bed and haul two huge ones down to the basement.
4) We can't be in the house and neither can the dogs. So when someone wants to see the house, everyone gets loaded into the car and we head over to Budge's to hang out for a while. One benefit is that tomorrow, I will go over there around noon so Budge's husband who usually comes home at lunch for their dogs, won't have to. I will let them out and give them their treat and he will get a break. If I could schedule every house showing for weekdays noon, that would be great!

It has been raining a lot here and very muddy so with three dogs, there is much mopping in order to keep the floors looking decent.
